A pilot's life is never dull, especially when you're a jet fighter pilot in the Marines flying assault missions in Iraq during Saddam Hussein's reign and then when you work at the White House under President Clinton! In training and in war, in the air and on the grounds sometimes you have close calls with Death. And sometimes you get nine lives. You better live the ninth to its fullest!
This is Colonel Greg Raths' tale... from the cradle through his Mayberry-like upbringing through his wild college days and wilder air training days to his time in the war, at the White House and beyond. Raths wrote this book to serve as a roadmap for success that any young man or woman can follow. It's all in the planning. And it's all about living large and in charge.
